We're moving to InPost on 17th July. Get ahead of the curve & start tracking & managing all your Yodel by InPost parcels & delivery preferences in the InPost app.

Can you leave my parcel in a safe place?

From 17th July, to get help and support with your parcels, get the InPost app or visit inpost.co.uk/help

Depending on the service your sender has used to deliver your parcel, you may be able to tell your driver of a preferred safe place to leave your parcel before we attempt to deliver. Download the Yodel by InPost Parcel Tracker app and you will be able to share a photo of your safe place with your driver.

If you provide a safe place suggestion, it will need to comply with our safe place guidelines of the locations being out of sight of passing traffic and that the parcel wrapping will remain dry in any wet weather. Examples of suitable safe place locations are:

Front Porch

Back Porch

Shed

Garage

Greenhouse

Outbuilding

Conservatory

If your sender has requested a signature as proof of delivery then our driver will not be able to leave your parcel in a safe place. In this instance, they will attempt to deliver your parcel to a neighbour who will be asked to sign as proof of delivery. Your driver will post a card through your letterbox in this instance to inform you of which neighbour your parcel has been delivered to.
